Generation of Design Principles as Knowledge Conversion - Elucidating Dynamics

2021

In this paper we apply the perspective of knowledge conversion with recent identified core elements for developing design principles to elucidate the dynamics of design principles. In the paper, the elements of influence, actors, and formulation are integrated in a knowledge conversion process of socialization, externalization, combination, and internalization – through which tacit knowledge is made explicit, shared, and turned into action. We exemplify this process with three empirical cases using action design research (ADR) to develop IT artifacts and generate design principles. Our paper shows the dynamics across a process of generating design principles. Viewing the generation of desig…

Jean-Paul Sartre tra fenomenologia e psicologia

2017

Phenomenology and psychology are two fundamental disciplines of culture in the 20th century. The phenomenology of Husserl was assimilated by Sartre at the beginning of the century, until the publication of L’être et le néant (1943). In fact, studies of Sartre’s works demonstrate that his philosophy of existence is closely linked to transcendental phenomenology and psychology. Furthermore, the key words of “being” and “nothing” allow one to follow the evolution of Sartre’s thinking from the philosophy of existence to Marxism. In this sense, the historical materialism exhibited in the Critique de la raison dialectique (1960) can be understood as social psychology in the context of human histo…

Recreation, Non-formal Education and Socialization as Factors Enhancing Well-Being. The Place of the Madrich in the Jewish Community

2018

Non-formal education and recreation hold a highly significant place within the Jewish community. These spaces are usually run by Madrichim—young people who can play an important role as non-formal educators.

Patterns of Regional Income Distribution in Uruguay (1872–2012): A Story of Agglomeration, Natural Resources and Public Policies

2020

In this chapter, we provide a new data set of regional GDP and GDP per capita for Uruguay between 1870 and 2012. As regards the long-term evolution of regional inequality, we find evidence of a persistent decline from the last third of the nineteenth century up to the 1960s with a strong reversal of the process from then on. The first decade of the twenty-first century, however, shows a new decreasing trend in regional inequality. Montevideo has represented a large share, both demographically and economically, over time as consequence of a privileged access to sea and the fact that the city was built around a natural port with excellent conditions. In addition, agglomeration forces identifi…

I poteri di Gramsci: Il dibattito con Bordiga tradotto e (ri-)pensato da Gérard Granel

2017

Questo contributo propone un close reading del saggio Gramsci et le pouvoir, pubblicato nel 1990, nel quale il pensatore e traduttore francese Gérard Granel analizza e commenta il dibattito tra Gramsci e Bordiga sulla questione dei consigli di fabbrica. Granel esamina il legame rispettivo dei due autori italiani al pensiero marxiano e rivela in che misura la “traduzione gramsciana” di concetti chiave come politica, proletariato e comunismo coglie il potenziale rivoluzionario dell’“evento Marx” al di là delle sue strumentalizzazioni ideologiche nei marxismi storici. This article is a close-reading of the essay Gramsci et le pouvoir, published in 1990 by the French thinker and translator Géra…

Mediaatioita : fenomenologisen marxismin mahdollisuus

2013

Tutkimukseni tehtävänä on selvittää, onko fenomenologian ja marxismin synteesi mahdollista. Käsittelen 1930-luvun taitteen Herbert Marcusen fenomenologista marxismia esimerkkinä synteesin mahdollisuudesta. Näiden perinteiden yhdistäminen vaatii kuitenkin ensin syventymistä Marcusen ajattelun pohjana toimiviin hegeliläisen ja weberiläisen marxismin perinteisiin sekä Martin Heideggerin muotoilemaan fenomenologiaan. Marxismissa on perinteisesti painottunut yhteiskunnallisten rakenteiden ja fenomenologiassa yksilöllisen elävän kokemuksen näkökulma. Tällaisten eriävien lähtökohtien takia ne on usein asetettu jopa vastakohtaisiksi perinteiksi. Oleelliseksi kysymykseksi nouseekin sekä marxismin et…

Assessing commodity price risks and terms of trade exposures in emerging and developing countries

2020

This paper provides novel evidence on commodity exposure (impacts of commodity price and terms of trade fluctuations) amongst 46 emerging and developing countries (EMDCs) in Africa, Asia and the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region. We focus on the exposures of six macroeconomic variables to the commodity prices and terms of trade, based on the real business cycle (RBC) theory. Our empirical results indicate that, overall, about 10% of the macroeconomic variation amongst the EMDCs is due to commodity market-related exposures. The Asian and LAC economies are especially sensitive to changes in commodity prices. The changes in the prices of world trade have an imminent impact on non-commo…

Navigation Acts and the integration of North Baltic shipping in the early nineteenth century

2017

This article discusses how Navigation Acts affected shipping and commodity trade from and to the Northern Baltic during the early nineteenth century. We use Finnish shipping and foreign trade as an example of trade integration at the time. Finland can be used as a ‘laboratory case’ to study the importance of the Navigation Acts, as the eastern part of the area followed Russian legislation without the Navigation Act to restrict shipping to domestic vessels, while the western part followed Swedish legislation with strict protection through the Swedish version of the Act ( Produktplakat). The article argues that the role played by foreign vessels in shipments of Finnish export goods was far m…
